hi im new to this forum thing so bare with. i have a 90 gallon tank with 2 blood parrots, 2 red hook silver dollars, 1 red shoulder sevrum, 1 black knife ghost fish, 3 clown loaches. had the tank running for 2 years now and all fish get along great. dollars r the size of a hockey puck, parrots are bigger then that, sevrum is about the size of the dollars and the ghost is about 5-6 inch long. my question is i just added a young convict, about a 1-1 1/2 inch(very small). how is he gonna react in my tank when he grows and r any of my other fish in danger?

any help would be great, ill return the convict to the store if he posses a danger to any of my other fish

thanks in advance

Never liked convicts in a community setup IME.
 
convicts are very aggressive for their size and will stand up to any size fish in the tank. ive seen my convicts in my past tank take on my 2 9 inch oscars. they will kill or at least try to kill anything in the tank when they spawn.
